Track listing

All tracks written by Rammstein.

There are various editions of Mutter, each with different features:

  • The Limited Tour Edition had the same cover, but red with the Rammstein logo embossed on the front. It also had a second CD with the following live tracks:
    1. "Ich will" – 3:57
    2. "Links 2-3-4" – 4:54
    3. "Sonne" – 4:42
    4. "Spieluhr" – 5:27
  • The Japanese edition had "Hallelujah" as a hidden track, found after "Nebel" (there is a two-minute intermission of silence). The track was later included in Resident Evil soundtrack, but does not appear in the film.
  • Another Japanese edition had "Hallelujah" as a 12th track.
  • The limited edition had a second CD with just one track, "Hallelujah", and a CD-ROM area featuring the "Sonne" video.
  • A 12" vinyl version and a MC version were released, with the same track list (Side A = 1–6; B = 7–11)
  • The Limited Tour Edition was also released as a double cassette set, with the second cassette containing the live tracks (Side A = 1–2; B = 3–4).

    • Note: Some copies that have "Hallelujah" as a hidden track can not be played for unknown reasons. On 3 April 2010 Rammstein posted a video with an official translation of "Hallelujah" on their Facebook page, "in light of recent events".
